Can you buy a game for someone else on PS5?
You can't send somebody a digital game on PS5 directly. With something like Steam, for example, on PC, you can directly gift games to your friends in just a few clicks. Unfortunately, Sony doesn't allow this, and the reason is not exactly apparent.
Can you buy PlayStation games for other people?
What are my options? Unfortunately, you technically can't gift a digital copy of a game anymore, on PS4 or PS5. While this used to be an option, it's no longer possible. Now, if you want to give a digital game to a friend, you'll want to send them a PlayStation Store gift card so they can buy the game themselves.
Can you transfer PS5 digital games to another account?
Unfortunately, there is no way to directly transfer a game from one PlayStation account to another. However, there is a workaround that you can use to share games between accounts on the same PS5 console. This workaround is called Console Sharing and Offline Play.
Can PS5 games be bought online?
Digital purchases of PlayStation games are tied to your Sony account. The PlayStation Store is the only place you can buy digital games, so owners of the PS5 digital edition won't be able to take advantage of deals at retail stores like GameStop and Best Buy.
